Gnuplot is a portable multi-platform command-line driven graphing utility. It
|
|
was originally created to allow scientists and students to visualize
|
|
mathematical functions and data interactively, but has grown to support many
|
|
non-interactive uses such as web scripting. It is also used as a plotting engine
|
|
by third-party applications like Octave. Gnuplot has been supported and under
|
|
active development since 1986.
|
|
|
|
Gnuplot supports many types of plots in either 2D or 3D. It can draw using
|
|
lines, points, boxes, contours, vector fields, surfaces, and various associated
|
|
text. It also supports various specialized plot types. Gnuplot supports many
|
|
different types of output: interactive screen terminals (with mouse and hotkey
|
|
input), direct output to pen plotters or modern printers, and output to many
|
|
file formats (eps, emf, fig, jpeg, LaTeX, pdf, png, postscript, ...). Gnuplot is
|
|
easily extensible to include new output modes. Recent additions include
|
|
interactive terminals based on wxWidgets (usable on multiple platforms), and Qt.
|
|
Mouseable plots embedded in web pages can be generated using the svg or HTML5
|
|
canvas terminal drivers.
